Tool Support

rocprofv3 is the command line tool that is built using rocprofiler-sdk library and shipped with ROCm stack. To see details on the command line options of rocprofv3, please see rocprofv3 user guide Click Here

Documentation

We make use of doxygen to automatically generate API documentation. Generated document can be found in the following path:

<ROCM_PATH>/share/html/rocprofiler-sdk

ROCM_PATH by default is /opt/rocm It can be set by the user in different location if needed.
